Dear No One,
Have you ever thought of death? I have but not in a suicide way, more in a spiritual way. In History we were talking about the death rituals of different civilizations (quite interesting actually). It got me thinking of where we go when we die. Do we go to Hades like the Greeks? Do we go to the Hall of Judgement like the Egyptians? Or just somewhere completely different?
Where ever I end up I hope it's where my mom ended up. I miss her so much. She died of cancer when I was seven. That was another tough year. And the year after that my dad met my stepmother. He forgot all about his first wife. After my father married Helen (the stepmother), my life has been nothing but disastrous.
A year later Helen had twins, the tweebs (Kim Possible, anyone?). The twins are okay, they get on my nerves sometimes but they couldn't be anymore cuter if they tried. Like when they tried to start a fire in the kitchen and Helen almost blew a gasket. That was fun to watch.
I used to have this friend named Thalia but she moved shortly after my mom died. Thalia always wore punk cloths. She was also a rebel. We couldn't be more different if we tried but we were the best of friends. One day after she moved I tried calling her but I got a "I'm sorry but you must have the wrong number" speech from an old lady. I guess Thalia didn't care about me anymore.
I have never had a friend since then. Don't give me the pity look. I like it better this way. Nothing can get in the way of my studies now. I have perfect scores and everyone knows I'm going to be valedictorian.
Tuesday wasn't anything special. Besides the fact that Percy totally forgot I was supposed to tutor him in study hall (who ditches study hall?) so I had to wait 'till he finished swim practice, which was over around 4:00. I was at school a couple of hours later then I planed. Unluckily though, I did not miss my doctors appointment.
I would have been very content with skipping the doctors because she told me I had a high chance of getting caner since my mom had it and my grandmother had it. My mom started off with thyroid cancer but then it moved to her lungs, my grandmother basically had the same exact thing only it was just the lungs.
Well that's just sucktastic. I don't have it (yet) but I would like to live my life. You know? Get married, have kids. I might still be able to but I guess we will have to see. My mom didn't get it 'till see was in her thirties but my grandmother got it when she was around my age (but she survived). It's nothing to worry about now. No one knows when it will happen anyways.
Back on the topic of the tutoring. How can someone be so dumb? I made this math worksheet for Percy to try. He got every single question wrong. I was hoping that he would be bad at just one lesson/section, not the entire textbook.
The geometry textbook has thirteen chapters, I now have to go through every single one. I'm a student not a miracle worker.
I'm pretty sure Percy could care less about this subject (and I could care less about tutoring him) but I have to do what the teacher asks me to do. I don't want to get on Mr.S's bad side until its the end of the year when he can't give me a bad mark, not that I would give him the chance to do that anyways.
We have a lot of work ahead of us. I just hope Percy can keep up.
Thanks for listening,
Annabeth Chase
PS. How can authors kill your favorite characters. I know it makes the stroies more interesting but why do they have to do it, especially when it is my favorite character. Doesn't the author know the character was my fictional crush? My heart is in pieces.

Its my last day of school tomorrow, well untill next year and since my birthady is also tommorow, I decided to upadate for you guys. Even though I should really be studying for history and spanish.
